Title:

TOOL FOR INSTALLING RETAINING RING

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/043651

Kind Code:

A2

Abstract:

A problem where a tool is deformed when a retaining ring is fitted on a shaft is solved. Plate members (2, 2a) positioned at at least one side of a full back face of a retaining ring (W) are arranged at a holder (1) provided at the head of a tool body. A contact portion (3), a portion opposite an opening portion (Y) in the outer periphery of the retaining ring (W), is provided more backward than the heads of the plate members (2, 2a). Fall-off prevention means (4) from which the retaining ring (W) can be easily detached is provided at the holder (1). There are sheltering spaces (5, 5a) arranged outside both side portions of the retaining ring (W) in its installed state. When the retaining ring (W) is installed to the holder (1), the retaining ring (W) does not fall off because of the fall-off prevention means (4). Further, even when the retaining ring (W) is slightly opened by being pressed by the contact portion (3) when the ring is fitted on a shaft (S), both the side portions do not come into contact with the holder (1) side and therefore the holder (1) is not deformed.
